question 7
when using laws to help make an ethical decision, the only question a person should consider is whether the law fair.
true
false

Explanation:

Analyze the relationship between law and ethical decision-making

The law provides a baseline of societal rules, but ethical decision-making is broader and more complex than simply asking if a law is fair. One must also consider whether an action is right or wrong, its consequences, moral duties, and whether the law itself is being followed in letter or spirit.

Evaluate the statement's claim of exclusivity

The statement asserts that the "only" question to consider is whether the law is fair. Because ethical decision-making involves multiple dimensions beyond legal fairness (such as individual rights, justice, and utility), limiting the inquiry to a single question is incorrect.
